Hi Canie,

It is probably easier to answer those questions by simply reviewing the overall picture.

When strong signals are detected it indicates to me that an earthquake which will probably be significant is going to occur. Most often it will occur within a few days. At other times it can be delayed for weeks or even months.

I have 3 computer programs which I can use to try to match the signals with past earthquakes. And when there is a good match it will often indicate that another earthquake might be about to occur near where the one in the match occurred.

So the answer to one of your questions is Yes. To some extent it is possible to tell when and where an expected earthquake is going to occur. However in order to generate a moderately good location and time for it can take several days of effort. And that is rarely worth the effort. So instead of doing that I use one of those computer programs to generate a list of possible locations for expected earthquake activity using signals from a 3 month time window. And that means that the list will probably contain locations where a number of earthquakes will occur. Those lists are posted to my Data.html Web page.

Getting to specifics:

With the first advisory note that I posted I simply reported that some strong signals had been recently detected and that as a result some earthquake activity was expected. With the note containing information regarding the U.S. earthquake I was stating that the earthquake I listed matched some of the signals. And because it occurred in this part of the world instead of in the Japan area etc. it might have generated stronger signals. And I might have detected some which were associated with it. However there is still some other earthquake activity expected though I don’t yet know where it might occur. And that is one of the reasons that I asked if anyone else could point to any possible locations for an approaching earthquake.

Does that answer the questions? I know it can be confusing. But the subject matter is quite complex.

These are personal opinions.
